    Default Anyone have a bad seat or window switch f/s?

    Recently while repairing the nonfunctioning head rest, the whole seat was removed from the car. During that time, the power seat adjustment module fell apart. I managed to loose one of the teeny tiny springs that sits under the barbell (two per).

    Does anyone have a defective switch that could supply a spring?

    Cheers,

    Roland

    sorry man..... I don't, but I was curious about your head rest repair.....


    On the switch that adjusts the seat back position... I can also move that switch up and down... I can hear a motor, but nothing happens..... I suspect it raises and lowers the height of the head rest... am I correct?

    That is the problem I repaired. Check out Winston's page below. My repair is only 1 week old, so I can't say if there will be any long term issues. It's fairly easy (just don't pop the power adjustment switch case
